This is quite different from what Dov showed as "the right way to
report". Dob's recipe begins from absolutely empty state and creates three
repositories involved with exact sequence and anybody can reproduce how it
is supposed to work (or break). It was written in such a way that you can
try to follow the sequence to see if you see a behaviour that is different
from Dob expects (in which case your machine, filesystem or the Git binary
you installed might be the culprit). Have you tried it?

Compared to that, your version above does not say anything about what the
state of A, B and the repository A and B interact with were in before the
problem started, so even if Dob wanted to help you by trying to reproduce
your situation, there is not enough information to do so.

Exactly.
